SHE is here....

I am so sorry for not posting in a very long time. We have had a lot going on in our lives since our last update.

First of all, Zachary is doing great and no episodes...Praise the Lord!!

Second, I went into pre-term labor at 34 weeks and was on bedrest for a while trying to keep our little bundle inside my belly.

Third, Isabelle Grace Krueger came into this world on May 5th, 2007 and she was 8 lbs 9 oz and 19 inches long. She came out screaming and has been a bundle of joy ever since. Zachary loves her so much and keeps kissing her so much that Mommy has to tell him that it is enough. :)

This week is my first week on my own and doing well so far. Isabelle is a great baby which helps a lot. We have also had a lot of help and my parents were able to come out and stay with is for a week which they have never done. We really enjoyed their help and Mom would come in every morning to get Zachary up for me which was a HUGE relief for me.

Mom and Dad also were able to hold baby Isabelle when she was not even 30 minutes old. They decided to start out to Michigan on Friday because I was having some labor. They arrived to the waiting room at the hospital at 7:45 PM and she was born at 8:03PM. It was wonderful how the Lord worked out the timing and I was able to have my parents with me in the room soon after she was born. I am still amazed at the whole birthing process and how AWESOME God is to allow this process to happen.

We are headed to New Jersey in the beginning of June and this little angel will be dedicated to the Lord by her Popop. Then we come back to Michigan and she will be dedicated by our Pastor here on Father's Day. Thanks again to everyone who sent cards and gifts. We really appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers. God bless!
